Daylight had spoken So clear and so plain I'm the keeper of nothing But an old flame Consuming the shadows Caught in the light Blinded by hunger And fed to the night Darling, you came to me like a dream in this endless blight My heart was reaching So tangled, entwined Like vines in the willow Serpentine killer, bound by his climbs Glory was calling She wailed and she whined Higher and higher "Leave it all behind" Darling, you came to me in the glory I'd longed to find My search was unending And my soul was bare And Darling, you came to me like a midnight flare Out of the ocean The stars had all gone My heart was broken Lost and alone Darling, you came to me like a beacon, leading me home
their songs make me long for something or someone. the kind of songs that I have to pull over to the side of the road because i am so wrapped up in them that i shouldn't be driving.
Born in 69 and grew up a rocker. Found Mandolin Orange a few yrs back. 1 of my very favorite bands. Watchtower is doing good music in a time when it is needed more than ever. Love the songs and the talent. They are 1st rate. Thanks from the heart. ❤
"I'm the keeper of nothing but an old flame" I felt this on another level beings my middle name is keeper of the flame and I am genuinely keeper of nothing but an old flame I miss dearly. Shout out to these guys for leveling with me.
I closed my eyes and let this song take me on a journey. It brought tears to my eyes. This is the kind of music that speaks to you in a way that words alone cannot.
Really well written. The realization that the sun's gonna keep on rising no matter what you do. Carl jung said "a man's purpose is to kindle a flame in the darkness of simply being" I think mandolin orange does a good job of helping us keep that flame burning
I heard them live at a small venue in Paradise Valley Montana. I have become obsessed. They are amazing and their sound together is one of a kind. Their music is one of a kind! I hope to see them again someday!
It's so weird I used to listen to this song on Spotify and have loved it ever since but completely forgot about this when I stopped my subscription. Out of the blue, I was looking for random indie songs here on YT to add on my playlists and I saw a mandolin instrument on the recent video I watched and the phrase "Mandolin Orange" came quickly in my head. So I searched it and viola! I saw the title "Daylight" which gave such vibe like 'I've known this before'. So happy I found this song! It's so great to hear this again 🤍🤍
Yes, Thats right! Free from iTunes. Thank you for reminding me how this beautiful song found its way into my collection and my heart. That was awhile ago!
Some folks perhaps run from intimacy and revelation. That is their loss. Don't let their limits bother you. Some are not yet arrived. Others never will. That is not your problem by relying on their approval of your taste.
This song makes me feel like i need to jump in my car and drive across the country until i find that whatever that this makes me feel this song. Just driving and listening in the moonlight
eu amo tanto uma pessoa , essa musica é o estilo que os dois gostam de ouvir quando estão juntos, hoje estamos separados pela maldade do destino e pelas peças que ele nos prega, ouvir essa musica é a unica forma que consigo me aproximar dele
"I'm the keeper of nothing, but an old flame"...sometimes those flames are the only thing to keep us warm in a cold, careless world. Careless to our wants and desires sometimes we can feel so small trying to work against the tides of fate and destiny, can't we?
Daylight Lyrics [Verse 1] Daylight had spoken So clear and so plain I'm the keeper of nothing But an old flame Consuming the shadows Caught in the light Blinded by hunger And fed to the night [Pre-Chorus 1] Darling, you came to me like a dream in this endless blight [Instrumental Chorus] [Verse 2] My heart was reaching So tangled, entwined Like vines in the willow Serpentine killer, bound by his climbs Glory was calling She wailed and she whined Higher and higher "Leave it all behind" [Pre-Chorus 2] Darling, you came to me in the glory I'd longed to find [Instrumental Chorus] [Verse 3] My search was unending And my soul was bare And Darling, you came to me like a midnight flare Out of the ocean The stars had all gone My heart was broken Lost and alone [Outro] Darling, you came to me like a beacon, leading me home
y asi ,. Pasa el tiempo yno importaN los dias ni las horas en un momento un alma se va #Maldito2020 pero en fin esos años tan simples nadie te los quita. #Lobailado #PorqueMÉXICO
I rarely ever leave a comment on songs. I love reading them though. To me this song is lyrically genius. This part is poetic. My heart was reaching So tangled and twined Like vines in the willows Serpentine killer Bound by its climb Glory was calling She wailed and she whined Higher and higher Leave it all behind
he used to sing me this song everyday..now we are back to strangers but i still love this song just as much as i still love him. i miss him everyday.
Damn dude that's a sad story
Daylight had spoken
So clear and so plain
I'm the keeper of nothing
But an old flame
Consuming the shadows
Caught in the light
Blinded by hunger
And fed to the night
Darling, you came to me like a dream in this endless blight
My heart was reaching
So tangled, entwined
Like vines in the willow
Serpentine killer, bound by his climbs
Glory was calling
She wailed and she whined
Higher and higher
"Leave it all behind"
Darling, you came to me in the glory I'd longed to find
My search was unending
And my soul was bare
And Darling, you came to me like a midnight flare
Out of the ocean
The stars had all gone
My heart was broken
Lost and alone
Darling, you came to me like a beacon, leading me home
cat fight thank you for posting the lyrics to such a wonderful song. Cheer's!
Thanks a lot for for sharing the lyrics
Such a beautiful song. That fiddle reminds me of growing up in southern Louisiana.
Yes.
Kkknhkkhjgkkknhkhhkh a.v
their songs make me long for something or someone. the kind of songs that I have to pull over to the side of the road because i am so wrapped up in them that i shouldn't be driving.
That... exactly...
This.
I got in wreck a few years ago listening to a Cody Jinks CD that I had just got. So I can relate
Jesus yes.
Factsss

I dedicate this song to my fiancé. She is my beacon in the dark and brought me back. Thank you Sara. ❤️
Omg this is too adorable 🥹 I hope she saw this…
Found my Sara 9 years ago, sleeping next to me as I write this. Higher and higher, leave it all behind.

That’s my favorite lyric in the song ❤
The greatest woman on earth recently told me that this song reminded her of me... made my heart swell with pride and love.
GOOD FOR YOU, MA MAYNE.
She must really Love You
my boyfriend said this song reminded him of me 🥺
Darlin you came to me like a dream in this endless place
songs like this saves Lives... saved mine...
True story. 💜
I closed my eyes and let this song take me on a journey. It brought tears to my eyes. This is the kind of music that speaks to you in a way that words alone cannot.
I drive to this song and it hits differently
This is the most underrated and underappreciated song on TH-cam
Can't get over how great this music is! Like the warmth from a fireplace on a cold winter night.
Nuttin like a good love song.... especially when you didn't want it, but needed it. 🧡 love that is.
One of the most exquisitely crafted songs I've heard in a long time. Really great
Really well written. The realization that the sun's gonna keep on rising no matter what you do. Carl jung said "a man's purpose is to kindle a flame in the darkness of simply being"
I think mandolin orange does a good job of helping us keep that flame burning
Wow Carl Yung said that, that guy and this band is amazing.
Amen
I’m really surprised this song doesn’t have more views. Such a beautiful & unique song!
Really an amazing song. playing on repeat. So relaxing
I heard them live at a small venue in Paradise Valley Montana. I have become obsessed. They are amazing and their sound together is one of a kind. Their music is one of a kind! I hope to see them again someday!
If I could I would spend the rest of my life in Paradise, Montana listening to this kind of music and be as happy as could be!
I wonder why it brings tears to my eyes every time I listen.
This is for the soul and I cant thank them for being around enough

Yes, these songs are sublimely crafted!! Little diamonds!!
Beautiful ❤
I just found this song 🎶 this is gonna be a good year 2023 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Been listening since Mandolin Orange and cant get enough... Love this duo-and-company. Mom-and-Pop (M&P) American Folk, love it.
I first heard this song on Spotify. LOVE IT!
Absolutely beautiful. It nearly brings me to years everytime I hear it.
Just can’t stop listening to these unique musicians, music and lyrics so true
Gratitude for the gift of this song on this lazy rainy Sunday morning…perfection ✨
I still shine darling even when you’re lost and alone ..follow it home 🏡 the light is in you ..has been all along
Gold. Absolute gold.
While your violin gently weeps, beautiful.⚡️🌻🌞
It's hauntingly beautiful!
this song always brings me to tears
The fiddle in this takes me places..what an amazing song, keep up the good work
Must have listened to this about 30 times since hearing it last night.
Everything i've heard from these guys, i've loved. So......un-pretentiously delivered (and Andrew's tone and timbre are so dang engaging!)
There just as good live. Beautiful music!
This song is purely orgasmic, I’ve never listened to any song as beautiful as this, everything is just so perfect about it.
Higher and higher leave it all behind
This song is amazing. I’ve been listening for years and it never gets old, boring or pedestrian
Love you guys, one my fav songs frorm my adopted home: North Carolina
Your voices just melt together, I love your music so much!
I got this for free on ITunes and I think I'm going to buy the rest of the album. It's really good.
Yes, Thats right! Free from iTunes. Thank you for reminding me how this beautiful song found its way into my collection and my heart. That was awhile ago!
look for wildfire at Paste studios
Some songs just find your soul
Y'all r my new fav obsession!
Thank you so much... ...💙♬
I think this song writer is a genius
Beautiful.
Going to learn it all. What a song. Have to get down harmonica for violin riffs
Some folks perhaps run from intimacy and revelation. That is their loss. Don't let their limits bother you. Some are not yet arrived. Others never will. That is not your problem by relying on their approval of your taste.
EXCELLENT,I HAVEN'T HEARD THEM BEFORE,QUITE GOOD.
From another time, with other voices, from deep in the ocean
This song makes me crave for someone.
This song is absolutely amazing!
This song makes me feel like i need to jump in my car and drive across the country until i find that whatever that this makes me feel this song. Just driving and listening in the moonlight
I just keep coming back to this, so fucking skilled
The fiddle hits you different
It feels like I’ve heard this before, but it’s my first time.
Muito bom. Nostalgia.

Great song! Love the lyrics!
Is this country music? Do I have to say I like country music now?
I love this song! ❤️
Saw you tonight at Cain’s Ballroom in Tulsa. You guys were AWESOME !! We love you here, so please try not to take so long to come back !
I was there also! First time seeing them and it was even more amazing than I could have imagined. Kate Rhudy was incredible as well.
Beautiful
Daylight Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Daylight had spoken
So clear and so plain
I'm the keeper of nothing
But an old flame
Consuming the shadows
Caught in the light
Blinded by hunger
And fed to the night
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Darling, you came to me like a dream in this endless blight
[Instrumental Chorus]
[Verse 2]
My heart was reaching
So tangled, entwined
Like vines in the willow
Serpentine killer, bound by his climbs
Glory was calling
She wailed and she whined
Higher and higher
"Leave it all behind"
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Darling, you came to me in the glory I'd longed to find
[Instrumental Chorus]
[Verse 3]
My search was unending
And my soul was bare
And Darling, you came to me like a midnight flare
Out of the ocean
The stars had all gone
My heart was broken
Lost and alone
[Outro]
Darling, you came to me like a beacon, leading me home
Song of comfort
I listened again and read the lyrics.
Good ol’ Mandolin Orange. No name change required.
thanx for the heads up … wake up Junkie, it's daylight!
The Canadian Maritimes would welcome Yas with open arms! (And a cold beer of course ) 👍👌
Still love ❤ your roots. Not this new house. But I'm returning
y asi ,. Pasa el tiempo yno importaN los dias ni las horas en un momento un alma se va #Maldito2020 pero en fin esos años tan simples nadie te los quita. #Lobailado #PorqueMÉXICO
Perfection
This song is me all the way

My heart was reaching
So tangled and twined
Like vines in the willows
Serpentine killer
Bound by its climb

She wailed and she whined
Higher and higher
Leave it all behind
Love it
Anyone written out the fiddle tabs for this beauty?
God fuck yes. thank you...
Underrated
How did I just discover this song?
AWESOME!!!
If I start a band I wanna sound similar to these guys. Beautiful band
if you like this, check out “no one but you” by doug paisley from the constant companion album 😉
Perfect
Does it get any better than this? If so, please point me in that direction as I'm missing out and do not want to be.
My thoughts exactly lol
My younger sister introduced me to this song. I guess she really is cooler than me :(
:(
Always.
Nonsense...she learned to be cool from you :D
Just be thankful shes not trying to force Ariana grande on you.
Cool comment
This IS country music, not Nashville Pop.
Reminds me of a western farmer game
Beauty
🧡🧡🧡
Can i get the lyrics please!!!!
This song is making me openly weep on the elliptical at the gym.
Imagine diper and mabel singing a folk duo. I can see it haha. Yes, I like cartoons
Yes
This song sings like a homeless man who's found his home.
I love you Mariel.
Jim Morrison has been reincarnated...these are great lyrics and great music. I love all songs by M.O.
Dedicate to my heath
Heck Yeah. It's my bday!
Happy birthday! Mine was December 3rd
